I don't know if I have a visual disorder or I'm crazy, but in my head, things look different than they do in reality. These mostly have to do with the sizes of things. I ordered something in the restaurant and when it came out I thought "that doesn't look like it's a lot of food". Now before you take out your Weight Watcher's scales, sometimes things don't look like all that much. I was quite full eating it and even left some over (very unusual), but my initial impression was how small it looked.

Conversely, I have the opposite problem with clothes. I was shopping for a dress today and picked out a couple of things one size smaller than I am and thought "Wow, these look so big, how could they possibly fit me". I tried them on and quickly remembered why the tag had a lower number than usual. Why do I look at clothes on a hanger and think they are huge, yet they can't fit over my tush. Now, before you jump to conclusions, I realize that the tush is not small. But still, it feels like I am taking a pop up tent into the dressing room and seeing if it would look good with heels.

Similarly, I have the same misconceptions with time. I can't imagine how I could fill an hour waiting for a child to finish a party, yet I am late to pick them up because I miraculously found something to do.

I guess my perception of things is way off. No surprise there. Thank Gd I buy my bathing suits on-line by the size number or I might be giving someone out there quite an eyeful.
